Wednesday in the House

Not a good day yesterday for the Rt Hon. First of all question time somehow gets diverted into a question of whether Peters has paid Bob Clarkson the $40,000 he owes him. Just as Peters said that he had now paid that debt and David Carter bounced up to say he was still waiting for Winston to pay the money he was owed for his legal fees. And then Rodney followed up to say Ken Shirley was still waiting also. A petulant Peters declared he was still suing both Carter and Shirley. Then towards the end of the session Clarkson got up to announce his lawyers had just informed him that Peters had now paid the $40,000. This generated a suggestion that the NZ First MPs had done a whip-around. Heh.
